‘Star Wars Battlefront’ Plays First On Xbox One With EA Access; GameChanger
Gamers and game developers are gearing up for a packed holiday season, with many titles set to compete for gamers’ attention and money.
Naturally, gamers have been clamoring for additional details about Star Wars Battlefront and continue to spam EA, DICE, PlayStation, and Xbox executives with questions and requests on social media. Interestingly, The_Poolshark mentioned “Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare” and added that those who enjoyed it may enjoy “Star Wars Battlefront“.
How is that? Why through the Xbox One Exclusive EA Access program. Star Wars Battlefront according to Spencer will be playable first on Xbox One with EA Access. The feature allows players to access a vault of games from EA. This was confirmed by Xbox head Phil Spencer in a tweet to a fan.
EA Access, which costs $4.99 a month, or $29.99 a year, provides early access to EA’s slate of upcoming games several days before their release.
So if you want to get your hands on Star Wars Battlefront as early as possible, you’ll need an Xbox One and EA Access.
If you’re a PS4 owner or an Xbox One owner who doesn’t want to subscribe to EA Access though the news will probably feel like a slap to the face. That means Xbox One owners will be getting a hold of Star Wars Battlefront for five days before everyone else. Battlefront is due out on PC and current-gen consoles from November 17, although there’s no word as to when a playable beta will, if at all, become available.
